Always interesting to see the difference in a player's game when they are played in their right position or a position they are best suited to

Another Freo goal was always going to happen when we repeatedly allow the ball over the back of the pack :facepalm.

More schoolboy errors  :banghead.

If a Freo player was in the protected area ump then why wasn't it 50?

Exactly, a 50m penalty I thought is awarded if a player enters the protected area, only when you wear a yellow and black jumper apparently.

It’s ridiculous. Should have been a 50.

I was pretty proud of the effort until the last 10 minutes

But yet again a lack of discipline coupled with dumb footy and I'm gutted again

I get we are an average side but I hate sitting watching whether it be live or the TV and questioning effort. Yet again I'm questioning the effort

Barely a player who has done well tonight. Brown has looked really bad tonight imo. He has been trending this way for a while.. has had a lot of praise for his kicking be he needs to work on everything else.. Ben Lennon II
